I’m new to this, but I’ve done the reading and I don’t understand the purple being less bright. In the data sheets, the forward voltage for white is 3.3, max 4V. green is 3.2, max 3.8. for purple it’s 2.8, max 3.6. Pink was 1.9 max 2.5. So how does purple have a higher voltage drop than the others? How do I understand this when reading the data sheets? Is there another value to reference?
